I got 16 on a roll of 120 and there were frame lines I could see around in my viewfinder which made them remind me of my Leica's. . And A16s and 16s I got in the years 2000 and 2004. They were giving them away in the early millennium when all the wedding photogs liquidated their entire Hassy systems for a Nikon D1. My compact 100 3.5 lens became a nice portrait fashion lens.... Maybe 130mm. I made a 16x20 with one of an ex model friend at Savvies Island. One of the last times I ever used my darkroom. Tmax tab grain film and Xtol 1:3 medium format for the most part is overkill. Yes I head you on the used digital backs and that will be my answer and love the shots you've been getting with yours thanks!
